Dear Dr. Pat,

My daughter began to go dance competition about two years ago. In the beginning, she had no problem at all and faced every competition calmly. But recently she has started getting a terrible headache before and during a competition. However, she still goes through with (完成)the competitions.

I worry about my daughter and I an even thinking about asking her not to dance any more. She loves it, though, and asks me to let her go. We keep on encouraging her. What else can you suggest?

Steven White

Dear Steven White,

I’m sure your encouragement helps your daughter. And there are two other ways to help her.

1. Hear what she is saying to herself before a competition. She may not be aware of (意识到) what she id saying, but it might be things like “ I will fail.” or “ I am not good at this.”

Let her practice saying things like “ I can win.” or “ I am pretty good at this.”

2. Teach her some simple relaxation exercises. Try using deep breathing to calm down, breath in deeply and then breath out slowly.

Let her practice positive (积极的) self-talk and do relaxation exercises when she is not upset. After she gets good at them, she can practice them right before dance competition.

Dr. Pat

When you feel sad, tears will come down from your eyes. When you are happy, especially when you laugh hard, tears will also come down from your eyes. But tears have a more important job than showing your feelings.

Tears keep your eyes clean and healthy. They wash away dirt and germs just like bath. Your eyes also need tears to keep them wet. And eyes must be wet so that they can move smoothly. Your eyes are busy looking here and there all day long. They move quickly from one thing to another. If you didn’t have tears, your eyes couldn’t move, and soon you would be blind.

Maybe you don’t like tears, but your eyes can’t do without them.

( )46．The story tells us ____.

A. what makes people blind B. why people have tears

C. why people cry when they are sad D. what tears are

( )47． Tears help you by ____.

A. showing how you feel B. making your face clean

C. washing things from your eyes D. making your eyes bright

( )48．If your eyes were not wet, you could not____.

A. look at things clearly B. laugh and cry

C. keep clean D. show your feelings
